REPORT OF THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN


APPOINTMENTS


All regular appointments have been made as required by law. They appear on the list of Town Officers and Committees.


Mr. John W. Leavitt was appointed by our board and the remaining Commissioners of Trust Funds to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Mr. Albert F. Flint. Dr. Ernest E. Sparks was appointed as Trustee of the Allen Fund to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Mr. Isaac Damon. Appoint- ments were for the period up to the next annual Town Meeting in accordance with the General Laws.


CONCORD ROAD CONSTRUCTION


In accordance with a vote of the last annual Town Meeting we have completed the reconstruction of another section of the Concord Road from the Lincoln line south, have finished, except for surfacing, a small piece of the road from that point still further south, and have completed the surfacing of 2 pieces of road which were built last year. The section of the road still to be rebuilt totals about 4,500 feet, and on the basis on which the work has been proceeding the last several years the work will take two or three years. We recommend that the construction of an additional section be undertaken during the year 1937. The trucking and labor on this job has been performed by citizens of the Town under the supervision of the Surveyor of Highways. We should like to suggest that the work continue to be handled by the Board of Selectmen acting as Contractor as in the past and that on completion of the Concord Road a few years hence the Town consider the reconstruction of Old Connecticut Path and at the same time try to have it accepted by the County and State as a Chapter 90 road.


WORKS PROGRESS ADMINISTRATION


Pursuant to the vote of the last annual Town Meeting we have administered the allocation and expenditure of funds


118


appropriated by the Town to be used for materials, trucking, and other necessary expenses in conjunction with W. P. A. projects where the Federal Government was supplying labor. In this connection water mains were laid on Dudley Road, Castlegate Road, and Hemlock Road and water connection was made between the Wayland system and the Framingham system at Richardson Square. In addition, six-inch water mains were placed in Edgewood Road. Several projects voted the last year still remain to be done: the gravelling of Gleason Road, the grading about the high school, and the installation of water mains on Oak Street and Valley View Road. The carrying out of the first project is tied up with the Farm-to-Market work being done by the Federal Govern- ment ; the second was unfortunately delayed by the necessity of submitting the project to the Federal Government a second time, but is now in final order and ready to be done in the spring ; the third will go through in the spring as soon as the necessary releases are obtained from the owners of property on Valley View Road. Special appropriations for all these projects are carried over and available for use in 1937.


We have attempted to administer the Town's W. P. A. appropriation economically with a view to securing a maximum amount of Federal funds to meet payroll expense. The balances carried over as shown in the budget calculation for 1937 are indicative of the saving effected. During 1936 Way- land received roughly $53,000 for labor from the Federal Government, in addition to which a substantial amount was spent by the State on State Highway W. P. A. projects on which Wayland citizens were employed.


We regret that it has not been possible to complete all local projects, but it has seemed much more desirable from the point of view of the Town as a whole to continue to allow our men to work on projects exclusively State or Federal, rather than insist that they be transferred to local projects, particularly at a time when the Federal Government was steadily reducing the quota of men which it would allow to work on Town projects.


During December we asked the various Town Departments to submit work which they would like to have considered as WV. P. A. projects for the year 1937. They responded promptly and presented a large number of projects from which the work this year with the approval of the Federal W. P. A. officials will be undertaken.

GENERAL


The Lincoln-Wayland boundary was perambulated on November 29, 1936, and the Sudbury-Wayland boundary on December 6, 1936. This leaves the Framingham-Wayland boundary the only one which has not been run within the last two years.


At our direction a number of electric light and telephone poles were relocated during the year and we are recommending the installation of additional lights on both the east and west sides of Dudley Pond.


Our Board, acting on the suggestions and advice of the Surveyor of Highways, after receiving more than three bids purchased from International Harvester Co. the 1936 Inter- national C-60 10 ton capacity.


The Town received as a gift from Edmund H. Sears, acting as Trustee for Charlotte Adams, a deed to a certain piece of property adjoining Mill Pond near Wayland Center, the land to be used for park purposes and to be called Adams Park. The deed has been recorded and the property is under the administration of the Park Board.


With a view to setting up proper fire insurance coverage we had an appraisal made of all Town property and the insur- ance was rewritten on the basis of this appraisal.


The usual minor repairs were made in the Town Hall with the addition of modern indirect lighting in the Selectmen's rooms.


With interest rates continuing low the Town has con- tinued to borrow money at still lower rates than previously.


We wish to thank the Town Officers and citizens for their assistance during the past year.


HERMAN F. ALLEN, WILLARD C. HUNTING, JOHN W. LEAVITT, Board of Selectmen.
